Red Cross Blood Drive

Many people don’t realize that red blood cells have a limited shelf life of just 42 days after donation. This creates a constant need for donors to help the American Red Cross meet the needs of hospital patients. The American Red Cross encourages eligible blood donors to donate blood this spring to ensure a sufficient supply for patients at approximately 2,600 hospitals across the country.
